With Wizards guard Bradley Beal back on the injured list and out for the next three games, it appears his left hamstring strain has not fully healed.
To give you some context, Beal was injured in a win over the Washington 76ers on December 27th and missed the next three games while recovering. The Wizards guard finally returned to the starting lineup against the Bucs last Tuesday, but had to be benched after 13 minutes of play. The team announced yesterday that an MRI showed that Bradley suffered a low-grade strain of the left aorta.

So, anyone considering betting on the Wizards should know that Beal will be out again for the next three games and will be reevaluated in a week. Washington’s next games are tonight against Oklahoma (8pm ET), Monday January 9th against the Pelicans and finally against Chicago on the 11th.
Beal is averaging 22.9 points and 5.2 assists this season.
